Podcast app is burning up my battery!

After the most recent iOS update, my battery life has tanked. Going to the Battery section of settings, it reports that Podcasts "Background activity" is responsible for 50% of battery usage. When I start playing a podcast, in a few minutes my phone gets noticeably warm in my pocket!

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 14
